three ways to make studying more fun

un) make color coordinating flashcards and secure them with colorful rubber bands! bonus points if you add stickers. puffy, asian stickers.

deux) sing your notes. pick songs that are easy to sing loudly, with passion. it especially works if you are sitting outside, and your neighbors stare at you.

trois) grab a bag of chocolate chips, and your notes. for every point/question you get understand fully, eat one chocolate chip. the goal is to either learn all of your notes, finish the bag of chocolate chips, or both.

old

I am obsessed with Moschino s/s 09. It's gorgeousss.

Also, have a quote:

"Yes, some people say to me you`re too skinny, but never a skinny person says that to me, only people who could lose a few pounds say that."

Transitioning into spring

Yeah, it's getting warmer, which means we're going to have to trade our jeans for shorts, sweaters for T-shirts and boots for sandals! I love spring, and I think it's the best time of year, in terms of fashion. It's the season for full, floaty skirts, airy tops, long necklaces and floral everything! Shopping will be necessary for me soon, so I sat down and thought about what I would need for the new season. The easiest way for me to do this is to conjure imaginary outfits out of dream clothes!

Here are some ideas, courtesy of my brain!

-Start off with brightly colored denim shorts, add layered tank tops in different colors, and top it all off with a floppy hat and wedge sandals.

-Denim can still be worn! Choose a lighter wash with a relaxed fit(no distressing, please!). Pull on a cute tee and a cropped jacket, tie your hair into a messy bun and enjoy!

-Full skirts are my true love, so there's no way they're escaping this post. Pair a printed one with a short-sleeved cardigan and lots of long necklaces. Extra mascara will add girlish charm. ;)

-If you're going to go the romper route (all the rage this season, ya know), do me a favor and add a brightly colored belt.

-April showers bring may flowers, so goes the old saying. What about those rainy, gloomy days? Match your clothes to the weather in a grey raincoat, hounds tooth rain boots and a matching umbrella! Or, if you're bolder, go for a printed bikini with a white T-shirt dress over it!

-Go barefoot with a floral sundress. Add a smile.

story of my life

Alice: But I don't want to go among mad people.
The Cat: Oh, you can't help that. We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.
Alice: How do you know I'm mad?
The Cat: You must be. Or you wouldn't have come here.
Alice: And how do you know that you're mad?
The Cat: To begin with, a dog's not mad. You grant that?
Alice: I suppose so,
The Cat: Well, then, you see, a dog growls when it's angry, and wags its tail when it's pleased. Now I growl when I'm pleased, and wag my tail when I'm angry. Therefore I'm mad.

Lakshmi Menon



My new favorite model. The fact that she's Indian (from Bangalore, where my parents are from!) has nothing to do with it, of course.

Plus, she's in the latest Givenchy ad. (Givenchy happens to be doing a "Sari Collection" inspired by India.)

Love x10!
